. Engineering training process in Russia on each stage of professional education is subjectto Federal State Educational Standards (FSES). According to FSES of higher professionaleducation, university has to provide socio-cultural environment for harmonized personaldevelopment. Growing social significance of engineers in the contemporary global context of rapidtechnological changes and constant innovational processes in industry require engineeringuniversity graduates to by flexible and adaptive, to have open mind and be ready for innovations.Besides, future engineer should be able to integrate into global technological network, be mobileand communicate with colleagues all over the world. Therefore social-psychological competenceof future

their work, it is easy for the efforts of the participating students to be uneven and this may reduce the effectiveness of technical skill development. o Students strengthen their technical skills though the whole engineering design process which includes several unique aspects such as consideration of local technologies and construction techniques, different design criteria or boundary conditions, etc. This process of having to adapt to situations outside their common areas of comfort with U.S. design methods and materials is, in my mind, one of the most enriching aspects of international service learning in rural communities in Latin America.4) What motivated you to incorporate international service
